    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I understand the feelings of the hon. Member. We have discussed this outside the House before. We have requested the Public Service Commission (PSC) to allow us to recruit additional staff, because we are really constrained. We have also asked the Treasury to provide money for more vehicles, so that we can give vehicles to areas which really need them to connect to different townships and villages. Unfortunately, so far we have not got approval for additional officers, but I hope we will get it very soon. We got some money for materials and equipment this financial year. That is not a serious constraint. The real serious constraint is under-staffing and mobility. I can assure the hon. Member that immediately we get approval for new officers and vehicles, the areas that need them more will be the first ones to be considered. I can assure the hon. Member that the former Marsabit District will benefit."
